TWILIGHT

6

The wind was blowing hard, dust grains scattered, leaves fell, then a strong rainstorm created. Within me, there is now a great storm that strikes the heart and soul. Remembering the passing of my parents. And find true love in my heart. These two feelings seemed to be a huge storm that was hitting me. However, there were times when I found a miracle and a clue to stop this storm. There is a great energy emanating from someone as if to signal that there will be a story more beautiful than the stories I have been through now. And I was determined to know about that story.

The next episode of my life has begun. In the previous episode, I found something precious about myself. Love, I have found it. There is a vibration in my heart that rises and continues to push me to pursue love.

The rainstorm inside is getting stronger. To carry me continues to be dragged by the flow of love that is so swift. Now a new step I must decide. Will I continue to be trapped or leave this storm. God does know how to give a surprise in every episode of a person's life. Like a savior figure, this time I found someone who could bring myself out of this strong storm. A pal.

After some time I stayed in the orphanage, I have not greeted any of the many children who live here. It felt so different, an atmosphere I didn't recognize. It was hard to blend in and adapt to this environment. Although this is my present home, it means also my present family. Indeed I admit, I am not the type of person who easily get along with new people. Very different from my sister. He was even very familiar with some of the children here. We just moved here a few days ago.

I decided to open up. Looking for someone I can talk to and talk to. Ask the state of the environment around here. Whatever routine is here. What to do, and of course until when we have to stay here. However, all day I've been around still no one to talk to. I'm starting to get desperate. And decided to do something that calms the mind.

Here is a shady tree right behind the hall. The atmosphere is peaceful and quite calm. Coupled with a soothing breeze. Usually I come here to calm down and re-remember my late mother. Being with him was the most beautiful thing I ever did. It's been a long time since my mother left I can't feel it anymore. All of this has become a memory.

Sitting under a shady tree, holding a book by Tere Liye's RAIN novels, is something I do often. Like reading and exploring the contents of a novel has become my hobby. Enjoy the calm and imaginative atmosphere in the novel world. But today there is a different event. The momentary silence I felt was suddenly piqued by the actions of someone I did not recognize. However, after seeing his face I felt very familiar with this figure.

Muhammad Arif

"Dorrr!!!" While holding my shoulder.

"Astagfirefull!" kataku shocked.

That is, the beginning of my meeting with my best friend. It came suddenly into my life. Like a lamp that has a bright light that will help me through the hallway of life that is so dark. Since then, she has been my best friend and personal advisor. Whatever problems I went through in the course of my life I will discuss with him. And will try to find a bright spot to pass through it.

I often spend hours with him. Just to talk and listen to her talk. I told her about how I went through a long journey in my life. Until I get to the point where I'm standing here. He once said, He admires me. It's ridiculous!!!

But I know, my struggle this time will not be in vain. I have been holding a heavy burden for a long time. After I found the mamat figure as if the burden had disappeared. Although sometimes her outspoken words hurt me, I can't deny it. Everything He said was the truth.

One day we met. As usual, the meeting of two friendly lovebirds filled with laughter. This time it was my turn to tell stories. He told me about how he got to this place. About 5 years ago. That day his family went somewhere. However, God's fate is sometimes very bitter. They had an accident on the way. Both of his parents died at the scene. He's just an only child, no family can hold him. And finally he arrived at this place. But there is one thing that amazes me. The expression he showed was not that of someone who was desperate. Rather like someone who has a great passion to continue living life. Time continues. And life will go on, how do we keep quiet. The world continues to turn until time stops. So keep learning from what we've been through. And keep trying to get back up and live this life.

The figure of Mamat has awakened me. Wake me from a long sleep that torments me. All this time I wanted to get up, but I continued to resist and pushed me further into the abyss. I found a new life energy. An energy that I will use to pursue and string my dreams together. And of course to reach my angel. Thank you my best friend Mamat.

The Lord is a great gift that You have sent me. A miracle I have been waiting for. My prayers, nothing is in vain. I'll wait for the next episode of my life...

Miracle

It's like a jewel

Which is buried in the rocks

Only with hope

I want you

Creator of the universe

Which gives all the prayers

Now I want it

A prodigy...

The one you have behind the stopover

Send it to me

To pass through the hallways

On the road of life

Which you have predestined
